looking for a company that never runs out of work - MT

Posted: Apr 04, 2012

I am looking for a company that never runs out of work. Is there a company out there like this? I would like flexibility in my schedule. No ESLs. Am I just dreaming of this job that may exist?

LOL! - nm

flexibility - possible
never run out of work - doubtful
no ESL's - never happening

ESLs are a growing percentage of MDs - anon

One of my accounts is a teaching hospital, and our newest list of 50 residents, ONLY 2 are not ESLs. They are here to stay. I can get most of the accents now and except when they are tired and slurring or rambling very fast, I can usually understand them.

Try "Trans-India" Wouldn't that be something... - if thousands of us (sm)

sent resumes (albeit phoney) to their companies?

As a statement...they probably wouldn't get it tho. Uhh, and cc as many MTSOs as possible, and lets not forget the AHDI.

lol! I must be in the first phase of going postal.

Sure it's possible - If you have a time machine - And go back to about 1985

Unless you go back in time, IMO what you're looking for just isn't out there. You can probably find a company that never runs out of work. You can probably find a company that allows flexibility with an IC position. As for no ESLs? Dream on, my friend.

I would like to point out, though, that one of my accounts contains some of the WORST dictators I've ever heard, all American with the "good ol' boy" drawls, yawning, snorting, sniffling, belching, etc. I'll take an ESL over some of these American dictators any time, lol!

Yes some of the American docs can be bad too - with their speed talking and slurring.

or mumbling is just as bad as if not worse than an ESL with a thick accent.

And yes, a huge majority of the physicians now a days are ESLs. There is just no getting away from that. They almost seem to out number the American doctors, I dont care where you work.

....and those never go overseas because THEY cannot do them. - We get the bottom of the barrel now.

up and I'd be back at square one, making no more than their "maximums." I wonder, are this new maximum pay going to stay the same (or lower)? I mean, in 5 or 10 years (if we are still here) will it be the same? Or less? I think so. ...

We are a pretty big company, and we think we know what transcriptionists want, but it doesn't hurt to ask. There are a lot of top people in our industry that are finding themselves without jobs, often without notice, both managers and transcriptionists. I think that the tide is turning, and that we need to make sure that we treat our people right, so if you could take a few minutes and answer this, maybe we can make a difference. I am asking for real answers, ones that ar ...

one to stay away from. Integrity. They test you, claim they are checking your references and then when you email asking if they got hold of the references, crickets. Not a word from them. This has been a few weeks, too. If they are this rude just during the recruiting process, I hate to think what working for them would be like. ...

I have over 30 years in this field and it seems that a lot of companies are either cutting the MT's pay to edit on ASR and/or are offshoring work out to India, Pakistan, Philippines, etc. I don't believe in sending our jobs overseas, and I've also given ASR at whirl (a long whirl lol) and I still couldn't increase my lines per hour to compensate for the cut in pay that I had to take by doing ASR. So what I'm looking for is a company that does not do ASR, do ...

I will begin my job search in a few short months after graduating from M-Tec. Reading the company board has been an experience with all the negativity, but everyone has different experiences with a company and entitled to their opinion. My question is what do people look for in a company in the current market? How do you know if a company is a good fit for you? What would you consider a "red-flag" that would make you turn away from a company? No this isn't a school assignment or anything ...

The company I work for hired me as full time 1000 lines with benefits. 3 months later they changed their policies to 1200 lines anything under no benefits. Also we can not work over 40 hours. How can they pay me by line but then tell me how many hours I can work? I don't work hourly. I love transcription but I've been with 2 companies in the last year and can't meet all their requirements to get benefits. Is this normal? I used to work fo ...

Would you be able to perform at that level? I'm sure there are some of you that say you consistently produce 100% quality and at least 400 lines an hour. I'm not talking to you. How about the regular MTs out there? Are there any companies that require this? Is it even attainable with the subjective nature of this job? How about if all of your accounts are ESLs and your pay gets docked if you send more than 1 document a day to the QA department? ...

that doesn't skew lines, lie to its MTs about it, pays a decent rate, has an MT-friendly platform, doesn't outsource, usually has a good workload, respects its MTs? I'm so angry at having my lines cut and being lied to about it I'm moving on, but I fear anywhere I go it's going to be the same thing. Are there any good companies out there anymore? ...

Jan 11, 2012

Hi all. I've been an MT for over 20 years. The company I currently work for has ridiculous policies and we are docked for mistakes. I've also been on night shift for 2 years and would really like to work days. I know no place is perfect, but I would like some opinions from you about where you work, and if you are relatively happy with your company. Thanks!!! ...

I am not provoking any type of argument here, but I am sincerely in the dark about this. I recently started working for a company and, in the last few days, rumor has it that the company might be bought by a larger company. My question is, will this affect me at all?? If so, what ways? Thanks! ...

Aug 03, 2012

Well, it seems as if the outsource bug has hit again. I don't know how my hospital transcription department managed to stay intact for so many years but we are officially being given the boot in 2 weeks. Anyways, if you are looking for another company to switch to, Mediscribes (based out of Louisville, KY) is taking over but their pay really sucks; hence, why I am not taking the job. We are a very large health group and if you get this account and run out of work I would be very surprised. ...
